Ingredients
- 1 ⅔ cup cinnamon graham cracker crumbs
- ¾ cup salted butter melted
- 1 ¼ cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup butterscotch chips
- 1 cup Chopped Pecans
- 1 cup sweetened coconut shreds
- 1 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and spray the sides and bottom of a 9x13 baking dish with non-stick spray.
- In a large bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs with butter until all the crumbs are saturated and form a dough-like consistency. Press the dough into the baking dish to form an even layer. Use the flat bottom of a measuring cup to press it down firmly.
- Layer the chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, nuts, and coconut over the crust in even layers. (Note: Each ingredient will not cover the whole crust, that’s ok! They will melt together.)
- Drizzle the sweetened condensed milk over the top and then spread it over the whole top of the whole dish with a spatula or spoon. Then sprinkle lightly with sea salt.
- Bake for 20 minutes uncovered or until the edges are golden brown and the center is hot with candy melted.
- Cool completely and then cut into 12 even squares to serve. You can also cut them smaller for bite size treats!

Notes
- Try parchment paper: Line the baking dish with parchment paper so you can easily lift the bars out for slicing.
- Avoid overbaking: It’s fine if the bars are slightly soft in the center. Overbaking can make them dry and crumbly.
- Don’t slice while hot: Allow the magic coconut bars to cool and set completely before slicing to prevent them from falling apart.
